Yup. Letters ≠ phonemes and in this case, even the character is different: r ≠ ɹ.

You don't use IPA for counting the number of letters in words. That would be stupid, and even linguists would laugh at you.
It's still a stupid AI, and it was confidently, and unambiguously, wrong.

I use IPAs to forget about work crap. (Former linguistics major; I know the other meaning, but it doesn’t come up much at bars.)
